Mass. Cowards Tierney and Lynch Among Benghazi Walk-Outs


Despicable: Dems walk out of Benghazi hearing prior to parents’ testimony
Source: BIZ-PAC Review

Fifteen Democratic lawmakers walked out of the U.S. House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing Thursday, just before testimony from family members of two men murdered during the terrorist raid a year ago in Benghazi, Libya.

The committee had already accepted testimony from Adm. Mike Mullen and others and was about to hear from family members of the victims. They included Patricia Smith, the mother of Sean Smith, an information management officer at the facility who was killed early in the attack along with Ambassador Christopher Stevens.

The committee was also set to hear testimony from Charles Woods, the father of former Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods, who was killed defending the compound from the roof of the security annex along with fellow former SEAL Glen Doherty.

At that point, the 15 Democratic members excused themselves without offering a reason and left.

Here’s a list of the lawmakers who walked out:

Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y.
Danny Davis, D-Ill.

Eleanor Holmes Norton, D-D.C.
Gerald E. Connolly, D-Va.
Jim Cooper, D-Tenn.

John Tierney, D-Mass.
Mark Pocan, D-Wisc.

Matt Cartwright, D-Penn.
Michelle Lujan Grisham, D-N.M.

Peter Welch, D-Vt.
Stephen Lynch, D-Mass.

Steven Horsford, D-Nev.
Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill.

Tony Cardenas, D-Calif.
William Lacy Clay, D-Mo.

"...all of us here at the policy-making level have had experience with directives...from the White House.... The substance of them is that we shall use our grant-making power so as to alter our life in the United States that we can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union." ~ H. Rowan Gaither, Jr., President - Ford Foundation (as told to Norman Dodd, Congressional Reese Commission 1954)
Are we there yet?

"Even though it is quite true that any radical eugenic policy will be for many years politically and psychologically impossible, it will be important for UNESCO to see that the eugenic problem is examined with the greatest care, and that the public mind is informed of the issues at stake so that much that now is unthinkable may at least become thinkable." ~ Sir Julian Huxley, first Director General of UNESCO, 1946-1948.
In case you don't know what that means... It means that the United Nations will continue where Adolph Hitler left off...only they'll do it more discreetly.

Something to think about... Part III
"There is no such thing as an independent press in America, unless it is in the country towns. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print.
"I am paid $150.00 a week for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things. If I should permit honest opinions to be printed in one issue of my paper, like Othello, before twenty-four hours, my occupation would be gone.
"The business of the New York journalist is to destroy truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon; to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. We are the tools and vessels for rich men behind the scenes. We are intellectual prostitutes." ~ John Swinton, editor of the New York Tribune (B 1829 - D 1901)

 And you thought all along that the conspiracy was just a theory...

"Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles tonight called for the early creation of an international organization of anti-Axis nations to control the world during the period between the armistice at the end of the present war and the setting up of a new world order on a permanent basis." ~ Text of article in The Philadelphia Inquirer (June 1942)
